Update: 5 February 2005

We just wanted to give you all an update on the “For the Greater Good” bracelets. 
 
First of all we would like to extend our deepest and most sincere thanks to all of you!  We have done way better than we had hoped and it is still not over!  When this started it was thought that we would sell about 100,  those first 100 went like hot cakes, so Jackie ordered another, bigger batch.  We hoped that if those sold we could raise about $400 for The Actor’s Fund – AIDS Initiative. To date, we have sold about 475 bracelets,  and yesterday, Jackie sent The AIDS Initiative a check for $800 - For the Greater Good!!!  with more to come - Wahoo!!!!  We are in our 4^th batch and will continue selling them until we find that everyone who wants one has one. Jackie is planning on heading to Seattle in May where she will have them there, or you can still order them through Papal at Xenarocks@people.com.   We are so thrilled with the response that we received, you all rock!!!
 
With Heartfelt Thanks!

Update - 23 December 2004

The first batch of 160 is gone.  I ordered another 260!  Why so many you ask?  Well, I am about 50 into this order of 260 and if you buy 260 you get a reduced rate per bracelet.
I will keep taking orders and I will bring some to the convention.

The first batch should be arriving on my doorstep any minute and I will get them mailed as soon as I can get them in the envelopes and get to the post office.

For each one of this batch of 260 that we sell it is pure profit for the charity, www.actorsfund.org

If we sell the 260 at 5 each we will have around $1200 for our charity.  I still don't know how much postage is going to end up costing, but everyone is being very generous!

I am so proud of us all!

For the Greater Good Bracelets

Most of us our familiar with the Lance Armstrong bracelet that says LIVESTRONG and shows support for people with cancer.  Well, here’s another chance to show your support for the Xenaverse and help a charity while you are at it! 

 Order a purple silicon wristband, embossed with “FOR THE GREATER GOOD” on it and show your support for Xena!!

I have paid for 160 and all the money raised over the original cost will be given to an AIDS charity.   Since Lucy has been doing so much work with AIDS organizations I thought this would be appropriate. My brother died of AIDS and several of us have lost people we know to this dreaded disease.

 If demand is high and I have to order another bunch we could give the next $$ to Starship or the Kevin Smith foundation.

The cost of the bands are $5.00.  Depending on the cost of supplies and postage I am hoping for about a $400.00 donation.

I am not going to take or make any profit off of these bands.  All monies will go to Charity. 

Many thanks to callistofreak who is sending me some cd mailers and to Ampsearcher who is researching various AIDS charities to give our donation too!  As always many thanks to Mary D for her advice and assistance.

I will be sure to get a band to Sharon for all her care and concern for keeping the Xenaverse alive and well.  I will also give two to Sharon for Lucy and Renee!  Maybe we should give one to Rob?

I have set up a paypal account  xenarocks@peoplepc.com or for those who don’t want to use paypal send me your checks or money orders to
